Dryer Master DM510
Operations Manual
The discharge rate won't go above “X “, or below “Y”.
Check whether the maximum and minimum discharge rate settings are correct.
a)
Press Settings
b)
Press “1” for Supervisor Setup
c)
Enter the Password “123”
d)
Press “1” for Control Limits
e)
Verify that the Maximum and Minimum Discharge rates in Auto are correct. (These are the
maximum and minimum rates that the DM will use in Automatic mode.)
The DM worked great in wheat, but not in corn.
Check that the volumes and throughput have been correctly entered for each product. In the DM
each product has its own settings that need to be configured.

The default values are 1.0, 2000, 1000, and 50 for the four entries. If you see those values most
likely the DM has not yet been set up for this product.
The moisture is above target and yet the DM wants to speed up (or the
reverse).
By the time the grain is coming out of the dryer it is too late to make a speed adjustment to change
this moisture. Instead the DM is focused on what is in the dryer, what is coming into the dryer, and
any change in drying conditions. For example, if the exit moisture is above target but the inlet
moisture is falling the DM may want to speed up the dryer to make sure this incoming dry grain is
not over dried by too much.
All the grain is not coming out at the moisture setpoint (target).
The DM can only help you maximize the performance of your dryer. It helps you run at the best
discharge rate for the mix of grain in the dryer, but it can not break the laws of physics. The DM will
try to dry your grain to your average moisture set point. Some grain will be above and some below
the set point, but on average the total average should be very close to the set point over a few dryer
loads.
